Open Course Policy

Every course is open for registration to any person admitted to the college who meets the course prerequisites and enrollment procedures. All courses are offered for college credit; auditing is not permitted.

Duplicate or Conflicting Courses

Students are not permitted to register in more than one section of the same course and may not register in courses that have scheduled meeting times that conflict.

Prerequisites/Advisories

Note: Some courses have prerequisites or advisories included with the course description. These are designated to assist students in the selection of course levels for their maximum success.

Important: To ensure proper placement, prerequisites for all classes will be checked at the time of registration. If you have taken a prerequisite course at an institution other than LMC, you should submit the prerequisite equivalency request form along with an unofficial transcript to the LMC Admissions & Records Office prior to registration.

Prerequisites may be challenged through the end of the fifth business day of the term. Prerequisite Challenge forms are available online through the Admissions & Records Office webpage. Students must provide sufficient documentation to substantiate satisfaction of the prerequisite by other means. Once accepted, the student will be conditionally enrolled and the department chair will review the student’s request. If approved, the student will remain in the class; if denied, the student will be dropped from the class for lack of prerequisite and enrollment fees will be refunded. There are no catalog rights on prerequisites.

References to “successful completion” implies with a grade of ‘C’ or better. Courses in progress outside the district will not be accepted as prerequisites. Advisories are recommendations only and need not be verified.

Waitlist

Once courses with a waitlist fill to their maximum capacity, you have the option to add your name to a priority listing in the event drops should occur or the instructor agrees to add late enrollees (at the first class meeting).

Important Waitlist Details

1. All co-requisites or prerequisites must be met before being placed on a waitlist.

2. Once you have added your name to a waitlist, you can check your status (i.e. you are now # 2 of 5 students on the list) by going into “Manage My Waitlist” on InSite. You should check your status on InSite frequently to allow yourself the maximum amount of time to register, in the event permission is granted prior to the start of instruction (includes weekends and holidays).

3. If space becomes available in your waitlist course, you will receive notification to your InSite email account that permission has been granted to register. This email and a text message are a courtesy. You can access the information by checking “Manage My Waitlist”. Waitlist notifications will be sent to the student’s college email account. Please check it frequently if you are on a waitlist. Students may now elect to receive text message notifications - opt in at InSite

4. Once permission is granted, you will have three (3) calendar days to register in the class via InSite. After three days, if you have not registered in the class, your name will be removed from the waitlist and the next student on the list will be notified that they are eligible to fill the open seat. Once your name is removed from the list, you no longer have priority status.

5. If you are on a waitlist at the start of instruction, you must email the instructor on the first class meeting date to see if there is space available for late enrollment. If you do not email the instructor, you lose your place on the priority listing and another student may be added instead.

If approved, the instructor will assign you an add authorization. You will need to add the class online through InSite.

Please note: Beginning with the first day of instruction, the option to have your name placed on a waitlist is no longer available.

Transfer of Credit

If you have previous college experience and would like to transfer other college credit to LMC, you must request an official college transcript to be sent to the LMC Admissions & Records Office (Note: not required if prior coursework is within the CCCCD.) Your previous coursework will then be evaluated for prerequisite course information. Students may request an evaluation by submitting a Request for Transcript Evaluation using the LMC Student Forms tile on InSite or an evaluation will be completed with submission of a petition for graduation.

Priority registration appointments are available by request to active military personnel and to honorably discharged veterans.

*These courses meet LMC GE requirements, but transfer as electives or major requirements.

**Degree credit if taken Summer 2011 and later.

Associate Degrees at LMC

The Associate Degree requires 60 degree-applicable or transfer-level units.

LMC offers four types of Associate Degrees:

· Associate in Arts for Transfer (AA-T)

· Associate in Science for Transfer (AS-T)

· Associate of Arts (AA)

· Associate of Science (AS)

Students who intend to transfer to a CSU, UC, or private school are advised to complete the California State University General Education Breadth (CSU-GE), Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) requirements, or the unique general education pattern of the private school. The LMC Local General Education pattern does not prepare students for transfer.

Associate Degree for Transfer

Students complete 60 transferable units that include the required units in a major or Area of Emphasis and one of the following:

a. IGETC for CSU or CSU-GE Breadth

b. IGETC or CSU-GE Breadth for STEM pattern requirements (Biology and Chemistry ADTs only)

IGETC for STEM: Students are advised that for this major, they may use the IGETC for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) pattern. IGETC for STEM allows students to concentrate on the lower division math and science courses required for a STEM major; and it is impossible for students to complete major preparation coursework and IGETC or CSU GE Breadth without going over 60 units prior to transfer.

This pattern allows students to complete one course in Area 3A; one course in Area 3B; and two courses in Area 4 from two different disciplines. Some variations in major requirements may exist at certain four-year institutions; therefore, students who intend to transfer are advised to refer to the catalog of the prospective transfer institution and consult a counselor.

CSU-GE Breadth: for STEM: Students pursuing certain ADTs may be eligible to take "GE Breadth for STEM," deferring one lower-division course in Subarea C and one lower-division course in Subarea D until after transfer. GE Breadth for STEM is applicable only to majors for which the Transfer Model Curriculum specifies GE Breadth for STEM.

Note: Students who plan to transfer to a CSU and/or receive an Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) are required to complete an Oral Communication course (IGETC Area 1C, CSU GE Area A1) as part of their GE units.

⊲ For the latest updates, please visit https://www.losmedanos.edu/catalog/index.aspx.

1. 60 degree-applicable units with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher,

2. 12 units in residency (completed at LMC),

4. One of the following General Education pattern requirements:

a. California State University General Education Breadth (CSU-GE) requirements.

b. Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) requirements.

c. LMC Local General Education Pattern requirements.

Students planning to transfer to a private or out-of-state university need to consult a counselor, since four-year college requirements vary widely and are subject to change.

Graphic Novels, Comics, and Manga - 3 units

We are going to become adept at piecing apart the understated brilliance of these books by understanding their particular vocabulary and analyzing them for theme, character and other elements as we would any literary text. We will explore the past and present impact on a diverse society of comic books and graphic novels as artistic expressions and representations of social, political and cultural issues; in this course we will also examine power, powerlessness, and superpowers.

Introduction to Ethnic Studies is a comparative and transdisciplinary examination of the experiences of African American/Black, Native American/Indigenous, Asian American, Asian Pacific Islander, Chicanx/Xicanx, and Latinx communities in the United States from the colonial era to today. Students will discuss and analyze key theories and concepts from the field of Ethnic Studies, including Critical Race Theory (CRT), coloniality, migration, double-consciousness, colorblind racism, decolonial practices, and the “Wages of Whiteness,” among other topics, to grant students conceptual tools for the discussion of race and ethnicity in U.

Racial and Ethnic Justice Movements will examine non-governmental institutions of social, cultural, and political change rising from racial and ethnic groups, focusing on Native American/Indigenous, Black/African American, Asian American, Asian Pacific Islander, and Chicanx/Latinx communities. Theories of social movements will provide a foundation for discussion and analysis on culturally relevant topics, which can include anti-racist and anti-colonial issues and the struggle and resistance against racism, as groups work toward a more racially just and equitable society. Although earlier political and social clubs will be discussed, primary emphasis will be placed on social movements since the 1960s, such as the Third World Liberation Front at San Francisco State University and the University of California Berkeley, the Black Panthers, Young Lords, etc. Students will consider how racial and ethnic justice movements have transformed the meaning of America and American democracy. Emphasis will be placed on contemporary issues of racial justice considering varying political leadership and demographic changes. A key question students will consider is why race still matters to movements for social justice today. May not be repeated. SC

HUMAN-050 Hip Hop Culture: An American Phenomenon - 3 units

LMC Degree: ADR: Arts and Humanities; DA Transfer: UC; CSU; Cal-GETC Area 3B

This broad-based interdisciplinary course addresses aspects of Hip Hop culture, including its history, philosophy, art, literature, dance and music that has created a culture and identity for American (and international) youth in all its diversity. The sheer volume of multi-ethnic, multilingual, interracial and cross class integration that Hip Hop culture has generated in the last forty years is matched by very few cultural phenomena in the history of this nation. Elements of Hip Hop have touched nearly every sector of our national culture, as well as they have reached into other continents. In light of this, it is imperative to examine the origins and evolution of Hip Hop in the US as a means of understanding its influence on contemporary national dialogues about race, gender, sexuality, class, politics and religion. Accordingly, this course, will explore the relationship of Hip Hop to contemporary social and political discourses by charting its history in the United States from the post-World War II era into the early twenty-first century – approximately 1968 to present.

Academic Scholarship Standards

Attendance

Students are expected to be punctual and attend all courses in which they are enrolled. Students may be dropped by the instructor for failure to attend class in the following circumstances:

1. Failure to attend first class meet ing.

2. Absence from three consecutive weeks of instruction.

3. At any point when it is concluded that absences have irretrievably af fected the student’s progress in his/her coursework.

Grades should not be used as punishment for absences. However, academic grades may be lowered to the degree that instructors can estimate the loss of cognitive, affective, or skills learning due to student absences.

Grading

The evaluation in college-level courses is a prime responsibility of the instructor. Such evaluation involves the measurements of achievement against the objectives of the course and the assignment of a letter grade to denote the student’s degree of success. The grade, as submitted by the instructor, shall be considered final and permanent. Grades cannot be changed by submitting additional coursework or taking examinations after the semester (or term) is completed. Under state law, the instructor’s determination is final unless the grade given was the result of 1) mistake, 2) fraud, 3) bad faith, or 4) incompetency. (Ed. Code Section 76224.) No grade may be challenged more than one year after the end of the session in which the grade was assigned. For information on the policy regarding grade challenges, contact the Office of Student Life.

Final Grades

Final grades can be accessed at the end of instruction, following instructor grade entry online.

Students can view their final grades by logging into InSite or EllucianGo mobile app.

Students will lose their California College Promise Grant (CCPG) upon two (2) consecutive semesters on probation and will need to appeal.

Evaluative Symbols

P Pass (at least satisfactory — C or better — units awarded not counted in GPA)

NP No Pass (less than satisfactory or failing — units not counted in GPA)

SP Satisfactory Progress towards completion of the course (used for noncredit courses only and is not supplemented by any other symbol)

W Indicates withdrawal from a course within the allowed time

EW Excused withdrawal, such as a medical withdrawal or a withdrawal due to extenuating circumstances, may be requested at any point in the semester with supporting documentation.

MW Military Withdrawal occurs when a student who is a member of an active or reserve US Military service receives orders compelling a withdrawal from courses

I Incomplete — Academic work that is incomplete for unforeseeable emergency and justifiable reasons at the end of a term; student must be passing course to be eligible for incomplete. Student will not re-enroll in the course to complete pending assignments, projects or exams. A final grade is assigned when the work has been completed or after one year.

Pass/No Pass Grade Option:

The purpose of the Pass/No Pass (P/NP) option is to allow students to take challenging courses while avoiding undue concern for their grade point averages. Students who select this option are, however, expected to complete the course, comply with attendance requirements, and comply with all other requirements of the course.

Selected courses have been labeled with “SC” to indicate student choice for the P/NP option. If students do not choose the P/NP option before the deadline, they will be issued a letter grade for the course.

It is often best to discuss this choice with a counselor.

In order to exercise this option, a petition must be filed with the Admissions & Records Office at the time of registration or no later than the deadline listed for a full-semester class. Petitions for summer session and short-term courses must be filed no later than the second to last day of the course. After the deadline has passed, the grading choice may not be reversed.

Important information related to the P/NP option:

• A P grade represents a letter grade of A, B, or C

• A NP grade represents a letter grade of D or F

• Units earned on a P/NP basis will not be used to calculate grade point averages

• Units attempted for which NP is recorded will be considered in factoring probation and dismissal status

• Units earned on a P/NP basis will apply to the 60 units required for an associate degree

• Students should be aware that other colleges and universities may or may not limit the number of P units that will be accepted from transfer students.

Alert & Dismissal

Alert and dismissal status is based on coursework that is attempted and/or completed within the Contra Costa Community College District. Students should be aware that their academic standing is not based solely on units completed at Los Medanos College.

Categories of Alert & Dismissal

• Alert 1 Status: One (1) semester with cumulative GPA under 2.0 with 12 or more cumulative units attempted, and/or 50 percent or more of attempted courses resulting in a W, I, and/or NP.

Course Repetition

Courses are not repeatable unless noted within the course descriptions listed in the catalog. Students may repeat a non-repeatable course only to alleviate a substandard grade of D, F or NC/NP. Students are limited to enrolling in credit classes a maximum of three times. This includes students earning substandard grades or dropping with a “W.” Course repetition may only be granted for limited conditions.

Students must file a petition for course repetition located in the LMC Student Forms tile on InSite. Students are urged to manage course load. Carefully consider dropping courses and understand all deadlines. Take advantage of tutoring and other support services to achieve successful completion of all courses.

When a course is repeated to alleviate a substandard grade, the previous grade will be disregarded in computing the student’s grade point average. The substandard grade will remain on the student’s transcript with a notation that the course has been repeated. Courses that are repeatable are noted in the college catalog with the number of repeats allowed. Students may not repeat a course beyond the maximum repeats, even to alleviate substandard grades.

Course repetition cannot be used to make up an incomplete ‘I’ grade.

Withdrawals

• Students who have documented extenuating circumstances such as accidents, illness or other circumstances beyond the control of the student, may apply for a withdrawal after the 75 percent of the term (petition required).

• A ‘W’ shall not be assigned if the student withdraws due to the impact of fire, flood or other extraordinary conditions (petition required).

• In the case of discriminatory treatment or retaliation for discriminatory treatment a ‘W’ shall not be assigned.

• Active or reserve military students who receive orders compelling a withdrawal from courses will receive a military withdrawal which shall not be counted in the limit of withdrawals or progress probation.

Academic Renewal Policy

Based on the Academic Renewal Policy, substandard grades may be disregarded if they are not reflective of a student’s demonstrated academic ability. If Academic Renewal is approved, the student’s permanent record will be notated with appropriate comments and the substandard (D, F) unit values will not be computed in the cumulative grade point average. The “renewed” courses and the related grades will not be removed from the record, as the district is required to show a complete and accurate academic record for every student (Title 5, Section 55046).

Students MUST meet with a counselor to review options for Academic Renewal, as this procedure is irreversible.
